Jiang Baige didn't see the face clearly as it flashed by.

She quickly switched to another channel, wanting to confirm the face again... Fortunately, there were more than ten local TV stations in Lincheng, and it was time to broadcast the news, two-thirds of which were related to the accidental fall.

"Accidental fall"?

Jiang Baige felt that she had inadvertently grasped the key point: the fall from the building in the previous life was an intentional homicide disguised as an accident, so what about this time?

At this moment, the familiar mosaic face close-up appeared in front of Jiang Baige again.

She could finally be sure that "Mosaic" was no one else but Zhang Ye.

Since the last life, Zhang Ye appeared in all the news with mosaics covering his eyes.

Therefore, Jiang Baige is more familiar with this mosaic face.

Jiang Baige stared at the TV closely and confirmed that Zhang Ye left in a police car rather than an ambulance.

Is it...

The person who pushed Chen Bo down was Zhang Ye?

She remembered Xiaoyu saying that when her mother sent her back to Lijing Villa, her aunt was also at home, so her father could not go to the hospital to accompany her brother, and her grandmother took over instead.

That means, when Chen Bo fell from the building, he and Zhang Ye were the only ones at home?

Moreover, the place where he fell from the building was the master bedroom. If there were relatives or friends there, they would not run into someone else's bedroom for no reason, right?

But the problem is that Zhang Ye is a petite woman, while Chen Bo is big and strong. Can Zhang Ye push him down?

Or... does she have an accomplice?

But this person didn't exist in the previous life, and this is Chen Bo's home. Even if there are accomplices, it's too strange to attack in Chen Bo's home...

As Jiang Baige was thinking about it, her stomach started to growl.

The door is open.

Yao Jing walked in from outside carrying two plastic bags.

"you're awake?"

Jiang Baige nodded.

"Then pack up and come over for dinner... I was afraid you didn't have much appetite, so I bought some drinks and snacks."

Having said that, he went back into the kitchen to busy himself.

Somehow, the two words that Liu Shutong had used to praise Yao Jing flashed through Jiang Baige's mind: virtuous.

In front of the dinner table.

Looking at Jiang Baige eating heartily in front of him, Yao Jing couldn't help but suspect that the fear he felt this afternoon was just an act.

"Your appetite is... not affected at all?"

"We have completed our mission, so we should be happy. Of course, our appetite has been worked up! Besides... the food in this restaurant is quite delicious."

"How do you know the mission is complete?"

What Yao Jing meant was that he never said that helping Liu Shutong was his mission.

But what Jiang Baige understood was that there were indeed some doubts about Chen Bo's fall from the building, and her expression immediately became solemn.

"You also think there's something wrong with this?"

"what?"

Jiang Baige didn't notice that Yao Jing was confused and repeated his analysis to Yao Jing again.

Yao Jing said, "But...isn't our goal to just save Liu Shutong's child? What's the love-hate relationship between Chen Bo and Zhang Ye? We don't need to get involved, right?"

A word to awaken the dreamer.

She was really "too immersed in the role".

"You're right! Then I'll buy a ticket and go home tonight!"

"what?"

Yao Jing almost couldn't keep up with Jiang Baige's unconventional thinking.

"Is it strange? Didn't I stay here just to solve Liu Shutong's problem? Now that the problem has been solved, of course I have to go home."

This is true, but Yao Jing is not as happy as Jiang Baige. His gentle face is stretched long.

"Why are you unhappy?"

Jiang Baige stood up from the chair, crossed the dining table, leaned in front of Yao Jing and took a look, and suddenly understood -

"Oh, do you feel like you're losing money on rent?"

Because they rented the house at the end of October and renewed it at the end of January.

Although they only paid one month's rent because it was difficult to rent a house before the New Year, that was still 2,500 yuan!

Who wouldn’t feel distressed?

"Yeah, it's a big loss." Yao Jing said unhappily.

She guessed it right!

Jiang Baige felt a little complacent and couldn't help but give herself a thumbs up in her heart for her foresight in the past few days.

"Actually, I've thought about it. It's really not reasonable for you to pay all this rent by yourself. So, when I go back this year and get my New Year's money, I'll transfer this month's rent to you."

"Do you still think you're very smart?"

Yao Jing became unusually sarcastic.

The smile on Jiang Baige's face faded and he frowned: "Don't try to be aggressive... If you are short of money, I won't fight with you for it."

"I……"

But just as he started, Jiang Baige's cell phone rang.

"Xingran? Did you see the news too?"

Jiang Baige had almost finished her meal when she received Lin Xingran's call. She immediately got up and went into the bedroom.

Yao Jing looked at the mess on the table, not even glancing at his back, and muttered to himself, "Please, the task assigned to me this time is too difficult..."

When Jiang Baige finished her call and came out of the room, the table had been cleared and Yao Jing was no longer in the living room.

There was a sound of water splashing in the bathroom.

Jiang Baige thought of their previous unexpected "encounter", her face turned red, and she immediately decided to run away first, not caring about what he had just said...

***

Perhaps because Chen Bo and Jiang Baige were just neighbors, the police did not keep them any longer after learning that the air cushion and ocean balls on the terrace were just for fun.

She quickly bought a plane ticket and prepared to go home.

Knowing that their daughter could still come home in time for the New Year, Bai Yunqing and Jiang Huatao were so happy that they didn't even ask why her internship ended so quickly...

Jiang Baige breathed a sigh of relief.

However, Liu Shutong is different.

Jiang Baige didn't see her until he left Lincheng. To avoid suspicion, the two didn't even send text messages to each other.

On the day of going to the airport, Yao Jing went to see Jiang Baige off, although Jiang Baige said it was unnecessary.

But Yao Jing still insisted, and Jiang Baige had no choice but to chat with him for no reason.

Jiang Baige's original plan was to arrive early and read a novel at the airport.

Reading novels is a basic accomplishment for online writers. Without input, how can there be output? She may not like every novel on the list, but after careful analysis, she can still find some hot-selling trends.

This was very useful for her to write that sweet romance novel for the purpose of making money.

Unfortunately, the plan has now been disrupted by Yao Jing’s “consideration”.

After checking in the luggage, because Yao Jing said it was still early, Jiang Baige had to stop walking towards the security check and went to a nearby coffee shop with him to sit down, and they chatted for more than half an hour.

Seeing that there were only forty minutes left until the boarding time on the ticket, Jiang Baige finally stood up.

Before parting, she patted Yao Jing's arm and said, "Congratulations, your mission is accomplished."

This should have been a pleasing remark, but Yao Jing suddenly became frank.

He stood outside the security fence and said seriously, "You are wrong, Bai Ge. In fact, my 'mission' has always been you."
